I don't know what Tim Skipper has done to earn a P5 job.

his position groups always look like they're being coached by a Sunbelt (D2) coach.

Florida: Sources tell FootballScoop Dan Mullen has now offered Mississippi State head strength coach Nick Savage the same role at Florida. Savage has accepted, we are told. Mullen promoted Savage from assistant to head strength coach before the 2016 season

So let's see. It could end up something like this:
Dan Mullen: HC
Brian Johnson: OC/QBs
John Hevesy: OL
Brad Davis: OL
Billy Gonzalez: WR
Ju'Juan Seider: RB
Tim Brewster: TE
Todd Grantham: DC/LB
Charlie Partridge: DL
Tim Skipper/Pat Surtain: DB
Greg Knox: ST

That would be a crazy staff. Definitely one of the top recruiting staffs in the country.

Nick Savage S&C

http://www.onlygators.com/12/03/201...add-another-assistant-from-mississippi-state/


Position assignments below are assumed based on previous roles and experience.

Head coach: Dan Mullen
Co-offensive coordinator/passing game/WR: Billy Gonzales
Co-offensive coordinator/running game/OL or TE: John Hevesy^
Defensive coordinator/LB: Todd Grantham*
Special teams coordinator: Greg Knox
Quarterbacks coach: TBD
(Brian Johnson)
Running backs coach: Ja’Juan Seider~ or Greg Knox
Offensive line coach: Brad Davis^ or John Hevesy
Tight ends coach: TBD or John Hevesy
(Tim Brewster?)
Defensive line coach: Chris Rumph (He gone)
Linebackers coach: Tim Skipper* or Todd Grantham
Secondary coach: TBD
(Pat Surtain?)

^ Hevesy coached offensive line at MSU but previously coached tight ends in his prior tenure at Florida. Mullen will have to decide whether he wants to keep Davis or hire a tight ends coach.
* Grantham coached linebackers at MSU. Mullen will have to decide whether he wants to keep Grantham coaching the position, keep Skipper (either at linebackers or secondary) or hire a new coach.
~ Knox coached running backs at MSU, but Seider is one of UF’s best current assistants. He is a former quarterback but has only coached running backs in his professional car
eer.

Brad Davis has to be gone right? Are we really going to take 6 offensive coaches and keep Skipper? Think they’re both gone

The names popping up for the DL job are Texas A&M DL coach David Turner, Pitts DL coach Charlie Partridge and Penn St DL coach Sean Spencer. Still hearing we'r after Brewster for TE coach.
